It keeps getting better every time! This series is going to be one of my favorite series of all time. Everything about this series is perfect, in my opinion. The plot always has me captivated, the characters are all unique And you’re either going to love them love them, hate them or be neutral.

Even though I’m not much of a sci-fi reader the wars and the politics leave me intrigued, anxious and hopeful. There’s not much romance in this series but, Darrow & Mustang have a romantic dynamic that I yearn to see when she’s mentioned. I love the tension between the characters and that they give mom & dad vibes within their “pack”.

I’m hoping Mustang is able to forgive Darrow and I’m nervous on how she’ll react once she realizes her fathers dead and Darrows been captured. I’m shocked on the betrayal of Roque, The Jackal & Cassius. I can’t wait to read the next book you see how Darrow gets out of this situation, I need Mustang, Sevro and the pack to hurry up and save our Reaper!
